It's Winter in Wisconsin

We got 14 inches of snow in one night during the recent blizzard. Everyone had a stay home day as school, daycare, and work were all canceled. Spent about 3 hours shoveling us out, but it was fun. The 2009 snow fort has began taking shape and mom and the girls built a backyard snowman.

In the other photos, creative Bela made the home into a school and did "homework" for 4 imaginary students.

The amazing thing is that in all that math problems she made up there is only one error, everything else is perfect. What a brilliant little kindergartener! 2+9=11 5+10=15 4+3=7. Awesome!

You can also see that she is an amazing artist and she is working on her spelling - she is still learning the rules of words but will try to sound out whole sentences. Awesome Bela!

Bela's 6th Birthday

Bela had a great 6th Birthday. We gave her the choice of having a party with her new friends at school or her old friends from daycare. She chose daycare, so we had a class reunion at Madtown Twisters. Bela loved seeing all her friends again and everyone had a great time!

Halloween 2009

Some halloween photos of the girls. We went trick or treating with the neighbors and Bela collected 3 months worth of candy! Zoe had a blast and loved the candy too. Bela's favorite house was the green ghost.
